About this Event
White Whale is thrilled to bring charistmatic baker, #1 New York Times Bestselling author, and TikTok phenom B. Dylan Hollis to Pittsburgh to talk all things old-timey food! Join us for this offsite event at the First Unitarian Church in Shadyside.
Baking Yesteryear is a decade-by-decade cookbook that highlights the best (and a few of the worst) baking recipes from the 20th century
Travel back in time on a delicious decade-by-decade jaunt as Dylan shows you how to bake vintage forgotten greats. With a big pinch of fun and a full cup of humor, you’ll be baking everything from Chocolate Potato Cake from the 1910s to Avocado Pie from the 1960s.
Dylan has baked hundreds of recipes from countless antique cookbooks and selected only the best for this bakebook, sharing the shining stars from each decade. With a larger-than-life personality and comedic puns galore, baking with Dylan never gets old. We’ll leave that to the recipes.
***BUNDLED TICKETS INCLUDE A SIGNED HARDCOVER OF BAKING YESTERYEAR. Following the talk, there will be a signing line for personalization. Can’t make it? We'll have signed books after the event, and you can snag a copy
B. Dylan Hollis is a social media personality who has tasked himself with baking and tasting unusual recipes from bygone years. Born and raised on the island of Bermuda, he later attended college at the University of Wyoming to further a career as a jazz pianist and arranger. He stumbled into both baking and social media fame at once in 2020, when quarantine boredom led him to film an investigation of an old cookbook he had collected from an estate sale. Hundreds of recipes later, Dylan now entertains millions across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram with his unique style and fast jokes.
Alexander M. Rigby is a New York Times bestselling editor at Penguin Random House. He holds an MFA from Stonecoast at the University of Southern Maine. An avid outdoorsman who enjoys hiking in the wilderness, Alexander is on a mission to visit every national park in the United States. He lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
